Theory and Models of the Disc-Halo Connection

D. Breitschwerdt, M. A. de Avillez, V. Baumgartner +1

We review the evolution of the interstellar medium in disc galaxies, and show, both analytically and by numerical 3D hydrodynamic simulations, that the disc-halo connection is an e…

Testing Global ISM Models: A Detailed Comparison of Ovi Column Densities with FUSE and Copernicus Data

Miguel A. de Avillez, Dieter Breitschwerdt

We study the ovi distribution in space and time in a representative section of the Galactic disk by 3D adaptive mesh refinement HD and MHD simulations of the ISM, including the dis…

Global Dynamical Evolution of the ISM in Star Forming Galaxies - I. High Resolution 3D HD and MHD Simulations: Effect of the Magnetic Field

Miguel A. de Avillez, Dieter Breitschwerdt

In star forming disk galaxies, matter circulation between stars and the interstellar gas, and, in particular the energy input by random and clustered supernova explosions, determin…

Does the interstellar magnetic field follow the Chandrasekhar-Fermi law?

M. A. de Avillez, D. Breitschwerdt

We carried out 1.25 pc resolution MHD simulations of the ISM -- including the large scale galactic fountain -- by fully tracking the time-dependent evolution of the magnetic field…

Observation and Modelling of Starburst Driven Galactic Winds: A Review in honour of John Dyson

Dieter Breitschwerdt

Starburst galaxies are generally associated with extended X-ray and radio halos, giving a clear hint of an outflow of gas and relativistic particles from the disk into the halo. Th…
